\"Chael<\/a><\/p>\n

MMA’s Original Gangster Chael Sonnen has stayed relevant in the sport despite being retired and booted from his FOX Sports analyst gig.<\/p>\n

Sonnen now works with ESPN and has his own podcast called ‘You’re Welcome’. He stays busy in the MMA world and always has a comment for every bit of news going around. So how does he maintain\u00a0a strong voice in the sport? Here’s what he had to say on The MMA Hour<\/a>:<\/p>\n

“If you can’t turn chaos into cash, you don’t know much about marketing. And I will tell you that I will create cash out of chaos every single time. And that statement is going to piss a lot of people off, which is only going to make me happy.”<\/em><\/p>\n

“As far as legacy goes, there was a time in my career I would get asked that Ariel, and I would get red hot. There was a time in my career everything pissed me off. Any question you asked me was going to set me off one way or the other, but that one specifically because I never got it. I had to deal with these other guys sitting around talking about their legacy like anyone should give a damn about them. I graduated high school. I loved high school. I donate to my old high school. I’d coach at my old high school. I’d do anything for my old high school, but the last thing I want to do is wear a God damn lettermen’s jacket around when I’m out of high school, and there are guys that do it. Look, when you move on from something, move on.”<\/em><\/p>\n
